Disclaimer: I OWN NOTHING
Chris POV
Somehow my mother knows about Alex, I'm not all that worried really, having flouted numerous groundings previously, however what does concern me is that I underestimated Tobias, which never happens. As far as I'm concerned he's a spineless coward who'd never stand up to me in any way, shape or form including ratting me out to our mother, therefore the fact that he has raises the question why?
He hasn't known Alex all that long so he's either severaly smitten or I missed something, either way he needs teaching a lesson. I chose to administer it in the form of my new aquaintance, Heather. Meanwhile I have decided to step up my plans, while I know for sure Alex is a shifter, according to Dr Slaski's texts I need three shifters minimum, not that I mind in the least, seducing two girls instead of one wouldn't just be fun, it would be a challenge - especially two sisters.
Unfortunately for me I have a younger sister as well as a brother both of whom seem to be interfering busy bodies. "I know what you're planning you know." Emma informed me from the doorway to my room. I had no idea how she'd come this far and not triggered on of my early warning alarms, hurriedly I shoved the old papers I was pouring over under my nearest pillow.
"Not heard of knocking?" I ask harshly, my normally cool and controlled façade dropped like a stone. She smiled innocently at me and flounced down onto my bed and tilted her head to the side, bird-like.
"Knocking? Um no, sorry not familiar with it. Anyways, I'm not going to tell, at least not yet, just as long you stop." I snorted derisively, she had to be kidding, as if I would stop the greatest endeavour of my life because my little sister threatened to tell on my.
Yeah right.
"Yeah sure. I'm sorry I was wrong." I looked remorseful, and she bought it – well maybe not but she did at least leave.
Julien POV
At night in Carmel to me there is no nicer or better place to be than the beach, there's no hustling and bustling tourists, no overwheling chatter just the moon, stars and gentle lapping of the waves. Not to mention it's totally romantic atmosphere, perfect for persuading my date tonight into a make-out session. Which by the way my I add was going brilliantly until that annoyance known as a cell phone – namely mine – went off.
Needless to say my date – called Chantelle, by the way – was not impressed by the interuption and even less pleased by the fact that I had no choice but to answer it as it was my parents. "Hello?" I spoke into it, supremely aware that this needed to be the shortest conversation I'd ever had with my parents in my entire life if I wanted to retain any hope of this night ending well.
"Julien, where are you?" it was my mum. Geez how am how supposed to blow off a pregnant women, especially when it my own pregnant mother.
"Out tonight remember?" I asked hoping but not believing that it would suffice, which of course it did not.
"Well we need you home right now, it's an emergency of the spectral kind." my mom ordered me.
Don't get me wrong usually I am the dutiful son and all that jazz but give me a break, hot girl, very willing. "Can't one of my you know four sisters handle it? For once? Please?" I practically whcisper the end of my sentence trying to maintain some appearance of being cool.
"Julien Dominic de Silva, if your not back here in twenty minutes I'm giving your car to Alex and your bedroom to Anna, capeesh!?!" I also hear Anna and Alex cheering me to disobey her in the background in the hope that she'll follow-through on her threats.
Sighing heavily I confirm I will be back then if not sooner and then hang-up. Chantelle, needless to say is not thrilled at my abrupt departure, and will tomorrow not be speaking to me, if my guess is correct.
Pulling up into the driveway I suddenly understand why my presence was so urgently required.
Authors Note: Okay so I'm back boys and girls, sorry for the rude and unannounced sabbatical it was entirely technological and I am very sorry, including about the short length of this update but it will be the first of many now that I once agains have web capabilities, lol. So please just review so I know I have readers still out there somewhere!!!!!!!
